It's here! Cover reveal and pre-order link (just in time for the holidays)for my forthcoming poetry collection PARALLAX (University of Arkansas Press March, 2025) selected by the incomparable Patricia Smith. Anyone interested in reviewing, teaching, or inviting me out to read in the coming year? I'd love to be in touch! Endless gratitude to the Ukrainian Cultural Association of Ohio, especially Natalia Lebedin, Megan Chawansky, and Lesya Vishnevskaya, for introducing me to this remarkable painting by Arkhip, a youth living in Kharkiv, Ukraine, which was a part of the Children of War exhibit. I couldn't imagine a more fitting image for the cover gorgeously designed by William Cliff. With deepest thanks to the generous poets who blurbed the book, Ellen Bass, Ilya Kaminsky, and Oliver de la Paz, I cannot wait to share your words in the coming months. And to all of your reading, thank you for celebrating the light within this news and these poems, even as we move through dark times. www.uapress.com/product/parallax/
